Re: [net-next-2.6 PATCH 2/2] net: replace ipfragok with skb->local_df

[David Miller]

Your netdev entry on the CC: list was literally:

	" <netdev@vger.kernel.org>,

which caused your patch to not make it netdev and therefore
it also didn't make it into patchwork.

Please resubmit your patches (both of them) with the CC:
list fixed up.

Thank you.

Now, PPPoX/PPPoL2TP driver still use ip_queue_xmit to send packets with ipfragok == 1.
So, now we can't remove the && ... bit.

Huh? If they still call ip_queue_xmit with ipfragok then surely
the build will fail after your patch as it removes the ipfragok
argument?
